The happiest place on Cybertron!

Trypticon Prison is the premiere Autobot detention facility on Cybertron. Located in the former Decepticon city-state of Kaon, it is where the worst of the worst spend the rest of their days thanks to the swift hand of Autobot justice.

Fiction

Animated cartoon continuity

Known inmates in cell block D-63 of Trypticon Prison include Cryotek, Rampage, Beta, Zero and the mysterious ManBearPig.<ref>Pretty much everything in this sentence is a hidden Easter egg, written in Ancient Autobot on a floor plan of the prison across pages 144-145.</ref> The AllSpark Almanac II

Blitzwing, Sunstorm, and Ramjet were most likely incarcerated in Trypticon Prison after being brought back to Cybertron by Sentinel Prime. Decepticon Air Megatron, Lugnut, and Shockwave were later incarcerated in Trypticon following their defeat at the hands of Optimus Prime and his Autobots while the Decepticons were on Earth.

Sometime later, Strika orchestrated a daring escape plan that involved Team Stunticon being reformatted into Autobot body-types by Oil Slick and Scalpel. However, thanks to the cunning detective work of Autobots Sideswipe and Cheetor, as well as some extra help from Optimus himself, Wildrider, Drag Strip, Breakdown, Dead End, and Toxitron were all taken into custody and locked up in Trypticon Prison alongside their master Megatron. However, The Motor Master, the head Stunticon, took Sideswipe hostage and threatened to scrap the Autobot unless Megatron was released from custody. Sideswipe was able to knock out Motor Master using Optimus' axe in retaliation for trying to offline him on his last day before retirement, and Motor Master himself was also locked away in Trypticon with the other Stunticons and Decepticons.

While sitting in their jail cells, Shockwave discovered that his failsafe Kremzeek program had been activated and was out to destroy Cybertron. When questioned by Megatron about the reasoning behind the program, Shockwave admitted that the Decepticons were not supposed to be on Cybertron when it activated. The Return of Blurr

Notes

• Trypticon Prison would have appeared in the unproduced fourth season of the Animated cartoon, where it would have been launched from Cybertron's surface by Megatron as part of a huge prison break, then land on Earth (specifically Dinobot Island).<ref>The "Season Four" section of The AllSpark Almanac II.</ref> It wouldn't be the last time that the concept of Decepticon prisoners unleashed on Earth would surface.
• There is no indication that Trypticon Prison turns into a giant dinosaur.
